I find the tenacity of driving the 'Beast' on the public highway for 150 miles quite something. Plenty of people struggle to drive a proper vintage car that far but here is this guy... The next question is how did he get a permit to drive it on an actual public road..?
It's got number plates on it (UU19). The front one is tucked up under the radiator and the rear one is stenciled on the RH side of the boat tail.
The car has a registration history from when it was new, so to renew it would have been a no-brainer and classic cars don't need an MOT in the UK.
Vehicles only have to comply to the regulations of the time. My 1924 Douglas doesn't need any form of lighting or a horn to be registered in QLD as they weren't legally required when it was made.
The only caveat is that it can't be ridden at night.
With the Fiat, in the UK no rear lighting requirement was in force when it was made, and the operator would only have to hang a coach light on the front if travelling after dark.
